It offers approximately 3.5 cu ft (around 99 liters) of capacity, with external dimensions of approximately 33.5″ H × 23.63″ W × 23.5″ D (about 85 cm H × 60 cm W × 60 cm D). Manual defrost operation helps reduce temperature fluctuations when compared to self-defrost models.
How is the door and storage organized?
The unit features three removable basket drawers, a reversible door for flexible installation, and a factory-installed keyed lock for secure contents access.
What environments and materials is this unit suited for?
This freezer is designed specifically for medical, laboratory, and clinical environments where compact size matters and reliable low-temperature storage is required for sensitive materials like vaccines and pharmaceuticals.
Shipping FAQ
What is the approximate shipping weight and size?
The unit ships at approximately 105 lbs (around 48 kg) and fits in a standard pallet-freight footprint for compact freezers.
What electrical and installation requirements apply?
It operates on 115 V AC / 60 Hz power and includes a manual defrost system. It is freestanding but can be installed undercounter if clearance and ventilation allow.
Are there special transit or unpacking considerations?
Yes. Because this is a medical-grade freezer, inspect packaging on arrival for damage, move it with care, and level it for proper door sealing and temperature stability before placing contents inside.
Application FAQ
Is this unit suitable for vaccine storage per clinical guidelines?
Yes. The VT65ML reaches temperatures as low as –25 °C and is built for storing materials such as vaccines and pharmaceuticals where reliable low-temperature control is essential.
What setup and monitoring practices are recommended?
Place the unit on a flat, level surface, allow proper clearance for door swing and ventilation, install data logging (or temperature monitoring) if required by protocol, and avoid over-packing the drawer baskets to maintain airflow.
What regular maintenance should I perform?
Check the door gasket seal periodically, keep the condenser clean, verify thermostat settings and drawer organization, and ensure contents are placed in a way that avoids blocking internal airflow.
